1) Not everybody runs Fedora/Redhat/CentOS
2) The builds I'm doing are targetted at distros, like Puppy linux,
which use older libs with backported security fixes. Pale Moon built
in a chroot or mock chroot in CentOS 6.8 and up, let alone any modern
distro, does not run on "Lucid Puppy" linux. That's because it'll
expect the newer libs on the target machine. This is why I have to
provide the entire old CentOS 6.5 environment complete with older libs
to build against.
